~~== Tethering 2 (Just a Test) ==~~

This is the first article written about the Linksys AC Series of Routers that is independent of the main article, but is also included in the main Linksys AC Series Router Configuration Tips for OpenWRT.

Why? The original article was getting way too big. 40,000 plus words. The limitations of the Visual Editor in terms of opening and saving were becoming a drag. This isn't a criticism of the Visual Editor, just a fact.

Oh, ~~one other item~~.

Even though this article / section is titled in a somewhat open fashion, as if it applied to any OpenWRT device (which it sort of does), it was only tested and intended to be used on the Linksys AC Series of Routers. If you've stumbled upon this page / article, it is also included on the main [[Linksys_AC_Series_Router_Configuration_Tips_for_OpenWRT]] article.

defaultroute in /etc/config/network has nothing to do with anything other than defining a default route in IPTABLES, and it is enabled by default, essentially it is equivalent to not configuring a default gateway for a WAN interface.
